Paths lead through the mountain park to the remote, whitewashed Holy Church of Prophet Ilias, but also down to secluded beaches such as Agios Sostis. In the nearby village of Agios Stefanos there are rustic taverns and seaside bars

Known as a family-friendly beach, Ornos is also one of Mykonos' trendiest, most popular and crowded. It offers lots of restaurants and places to stay, and is a frequent stop of many boats and yachts.It’s located in the south of the island, and is for those who prefer a more developed, resort atmosphere

Stop 6

Mykonos Chora is quite large for a Cycladic town. All the houses are painted white and have brightly coloured shutters in front of the windows, mostly blue, green and red. The village goes steeply up the hill with roads and also with stairs on some places. The narrow streets close to the harbour buzz with activity. They are filled with attractive small shops, Bougainville trees in purple bloom, small cafes and churches, and they usually end up at a square with a terraced restaurant and a church, or at the harbour front with its colourful fishing boats, the row of windmills and a pelican or two. Dressed up people mingle with the ones that don"t care so much and if there is not too much wind (because the "meltemi" can blow from day to day) they all end up in the harbour where the majority of the big restaurants are. Some of the nice, good and cheaper restaurants can be found in the small streets behind the harbour front though.
